Yeah definitely 50% since the first days of the 2022 invasion, not including Donetsk, Crimea and Luhansk which is what they already controlled before then. And there have been phases of land taken and stalemates, but I don't remember any progress being made after March 2022, ruZZia has always been in a retreat or losing territory in every front since then. Yes progress is progress, and I think time is only on Ukraine's side despite what most say.
